Equity Award Plans
The Company has two equity incentive plans, the Sprinklr, Inc. 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2021 Plan”) and the Sprinklr, Inc. 2011 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2011 Plan”). The 2011 Plan was terminated as to future awards in June 2021 upon the adoption of the 2021 Plan, although it continues to govern the terms of any equity grants that remain outstanding under the 2011 Plan.
The 2021 Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options, non-statutory stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), performance-based stock units (“PSUs”) and other forms of awards to employees, directors and consultants, including employees and consultants of the Company’s affiliates, as permitted by law.
In June 2021, the Company also adopted its ESPP, under which employees can purchase common stock through payroll deductions at a price equal to 85% of the lower of the fair market value of the Class A common stock on (i) the first trading day of each offering period and (ii) the last trading day of each related offering period.

As of July 31, 2025, the Company had 660,000 PSUs outstanding associated with a January 2021 grant (“2021 PSUs”). These awards vest over a five-year period if certain performance and market conditions are met. The performance condition was met in June 2021 and the market conditions have not yet been met as of July 31, 2025. If the market conditions are not met on or prior to January 28, 2026, the 2021 PSUs will not vest and will be subsequently cancelled.
From November 2024 through July 2025, the Company granted 2,947,019 PSUs to its executives (the “2024 and 2025 PSUs”). Seventy-five percent of the 2024 and 2025 PSUs are associated with a market condition relating to total shareholder return (“Market Condition PSUs”) and twenty-five percent of the 2024 and 2025 PSUs are associated with a performance condition relating to the achievement of an internal metric calculated based on revenue and non-GAAP operating income growth over an approximately three-year period (“Performance Condition PSUs”). Each of the Market Condition PSUs and Performance Condition PSUs will vest between zero and 200% depending on the achievement level of the market and performance conditions, respectively. If the market or performance conditions are not met by their respective achievement dates in fiscal year 2028, the associated awards will not vest and will be subsequently cancelled.
As of July 31, 2025, it was deemed probable that 100% of the performance conditions associated with the 2024 and 2025 PSUs will vest. As of July 31, 2025, the Company had 2,787,019 2024 and 2025 PSUs outstanding.
